As ever, Betfair Ambassador Alan Shearer has previewed all of the weekend’s Premier League action for Metro…
Newcastle United v Arsenal
It’s going to be a great atmosphere at St James’ Park and the win against Chelsea in the cup will hopefully kick-start Newcastle’s season.
Arsenal have one or two injuries themselves so it’s a tough one to call because they won’t like coming to St James’ Park with the great atmosphere and the defeat there last season.
Having said that, they are a great team, so I’ll go for a score draw.

Bournemouth v Manchester City
Man City will have enough to go there and win this game despite the small disappointment of losing at Spurs in midweek.
Bournemouth secured a good result last week at Villa and fought really well for it, but I’d expect Man City to take the points in this one.
Ipswich Town v Leicester City
This feels like a game Ipswich must win.
I listened to Kieran McKenna after the game last weekend and he said there were so many positives and if they keep playing like that, they’ll be competitive, but they can’t keep making the same mistakes. They are getting punished for the same errors every week.
They must cut out errors and improve in every single department because they’ve been nowhere near good enough to survive so far.
You’d think that if they’re going to get out of the trouble they are in, then this is a huge game. It’s a somewhat similar situation for Leicester though, too.
The difference is they have experienced that winning feeling and are in a much better position but for Ipswich, if they can’t win this one, then you’d think they’ll go through the whole season having the same problems.
It’s a tough one to call so I’ll go for a draw.
Liverpool v Brighton & Hove Albion
Brighton have the ability to upset the apple cart but I don’t think they will this weekend because the game is at Anfield and Liverpool beat them in the Carabao Cup earlier this week.
It will be a stronger Liverpool team so I think with the season they’re having and the form they’re in, they’ll win this one.
Nottingham Forest v West Ham United
Nottingham Forest were impressive last week and there’s no doubt Nuno has something going there. West Ham were dreadful in the first half against Man United but were much better in the second half.
With Forest at home and the confidence they’ve got, I think they’ll beat West Ham, especially with the form of Chris Wood – I have been hugely impressed with him in front of goal.
Wood is in the form of his life and his goal last week epitomised a forward in-form with great confidence.
It’s an incredible feeling going out onto the football pitch expecting to score and he’s in that vein of form at the moment, so it wouldn’t surprise me if he gets another goal this weekend.
Southampton v Everton
It’s another huge game down toward the bottom of the Premier League, but very much like Everton did a couple of weeks ago at Ipswich, I see them taking all three points.
They are streetwise, Sean Dyche has been around the block, and they know how to go to teams like Southampton and get results. I’ll go for an Everton win.
Wolverhampton Wanderers v Crystal Palace
Wolves were 2-0 down on 88 minutes last week and the players were still fighting for the manager which can only be a positive. The two late goals should give them great confidence.
Crystal Palace though come here on the back of good results, getting their first league win and progressing in the cup, so they’ll be full of confidence too.
It wouldn’t surprise me if Palace go there and get three points so I’ll go for them to win once again.
Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa
Spurs are back at home after a great win in the League Cup at Man City, but they’ve struggled recently at home when Villa come to town.
Villa did have a poor result in midweek, and it wasn’t a great result last weekend against Bournemouth with them conceding so late, but I think Unai Emery will go to Spurs and get the three points.
Manchester United v Chelsea
When a manager leaves and another comes in, there’ll be a different atmosphere, a renewed hope and belief at Old Trafford on Sunday, with or without Amorim, especially after Man United scored five goals in the Carabao Cup.
There’ll be more hope going into the game this weekend than there was last week against West Ham and that could really energise the players on the pitch.
I was at St James’ for Chelsea’s trip in midweek, and it was a completely changed team from the league game between the two, and the side he puts out against Man United will be different again.
It’s a tough one to call and probably why I’ll go for a score draw. I fancy both teams to score because both teams can improve defensively, and the added detail of a new manager in the dugout at Old Trafford for the first in the Premier League, whether that’s Ruben or Ruud, means Man Utd can get something out of this game.
Fulham v Brentford
Thomas Frank admitted that Brentford were poor for most of the game last week, but having said that, they did go and get all three points, scoring four goals.
I worked with Thomas Frank in the summer at Euro 2024 and he was impressive, a nice guy and engaging. He’s done a magnificent job at Brentford so there’s no surprise to me that he has been mentioned this week for the Manchester United job. I’m reluctant to say a bigger job because Brentford fans will come for me!
Fulham are a decent team and are impressive though, and I think they’ll have enough to take the points at home.

Artigo aborda previsão de incêndios florestais na Mata Atlântica — Universidade Federal do Acre
PUBLICADO
4 dias atrásem
30 de abril de 2026O professor Rafael Coll Delgado, do Centro de Ciências Biológicas e da Natureza, da Ufac, participou como coautor do artigo “Interações Clima-Vegetação-Solo na Predição do Risco de Incêndios Florestais: Evidências de Duas Unidades de Conservação da Mata Atlântica, Brasil”, o qual foi publicado, em inglês, na revista “Forests” (vol. 15, n.º 5), cuja dição temática foi voltada aos desafios contemporâneos dos incêndios florestais no contexto das mudanças climáticas.
O estudo também contou com a parceria das Universidades Federais de Viçosa (UFV) e Rural do Rio de Janeiro e foi desenvolvido no âmbito do Centro Integrado de Meteorologia Agrícola e Florestal, da Ufac, como resultado da dissertação da pesquisadora e geógrafa Ana Luisa Ribeiro de Faria, da UFV.
A pesquisa analisa a interação entre clima, solo e vegetação em unidades de conservação da Mata Atlântica, propondo dois novos modelos de índice de incêndio e avaliando sua capacidade preditiva sob diferentes cenários do fenômeno El Niño-Oscilação do Sul. Para tanto, foram integrados dados climáticos diários (2001-2023), índices de vegetação e seca, registros de focos de incêndio e estimativas de umidade do solo, permitindo uma análise dos fatores que influenciam a ocorrência de incêndios.
“O trabalho é fruto de cooperação entre três universidade públicas brasileiras, reforçando o papel estratégico dessas instituições na produção científica e no desenvolvimento de soluções aplicadas à gestão ambiental”, destacou Rafael Coll Delgado.

23 de abril de 2026O Herbário do Parque Zoobotânico (PZ) da Ufac realizou cerimônia para formalizar o recebimento da coleção ficológica da Dr.ª Rosélia Marques Lopes, que consiste em 701 lotes de amostras de algas preservadas em meio líquido. O acervo é fruto de um trabalho de coleta iniciado em 1981, cobrindo ecossistemas de águas paradas (lênticos) e correntes (lóticos) da região. O evento ocorreu em 9 de abril, no PZ, campus-sede.
A doação da coleção, que representa um mapeamento pioneiro da flora aquática do Acre, foi um acordo entre a ex-curadora do Herbário, professora Almecina Balbino, e Rosélia, visando deixar o legado de estudos da biodiversidade em solo acreano. Os dados da coleção estão sendo informatizados e em breve estarão disponíveis para consulta na plataforma do Jardim Botânico, sistema Jabot e na Rede Nacional de Herbários.
Professora titular aposentada da Ufac, Rosélia se tornou referência no Estado em limnologia e taxonomia de fitoplâncton. Ela possui graduação pela Ufac em 1980, mestrado e doutorado pela Universidade de São Paulo.
Também estiveram presentes na solenidade a curadora do Herbário, Júlia Gomes da Silva; o diretor do PZ, Harley Araújo da Silva; o diretor do CCBN, José Ribamar Lima de Souza; e o ex-curador Evandro José Linhares Ferreira.

VÍDEO: Veja o que disse Ministra em julgamento do ex-governador Gladson Cameli
PUBLICADO

16 de abril de 2026No julgamento desta quarta-feira, dia 15/04/2026, a Corte Especial do STJ, por unanimidade, determinou o imediato desentranhamento dos Relatórios de Inteligência Financeira de n°s 50157.2.8600.10853, 50285.2.8600.10853 e 50613.2.8600.10853, a fim de que fosse viabilizada a continuidade do julgamento de mérito da ação penal. A própria Ministra Relatora Nancy Andrighi foi quem suscitou referida questão de ordem, visando regularizar e atualizar o processo.
O jornalista Luis Carlos Moreira Jorge descreveu o contexto com as seguintes palavras:
SITUAÇÃO REAL
Para situar o que está havendo no STJ: o STF não determinou nulidade, suspensão de julgamento e retirada de pauta do processo do governador Gladson. O STF apenas pediu para desentranhar provas que foram consideradas ilegais pela segunda turma da Corte maior. E que não foram usadas nem na denúncia da PGR. O Gladson não foi julgado ontem em razão da extensão da pauta do STJ. O julgamento acontecerá no dia 6 de maio na Corte Especial do STJ, onde pode ser absolvido ou condenado. Este é o quadro real.
A posição descrita acima reflete corretamente o quadro jurídico do momento.
